So enough nerd talk for a bit. We're bunch of guys here. I'd like to check out your ride, especially since we have a good group from various parts of the world. :P
As for me -
My vanilla Ford Ranger to get me around and haul shit. (me unloading one of my old bikes in the back)

An '90 Yamaha 600FZR that's sitting around with me in Calgary. This place is like a death knell to a motorcyclist. The roads suck ass -- zero curves, and is still filled with gravel from winter, and real riding season is only a few months long.

An '01 Ducati 996 a day after I bought in back in '03. Right now it's sitting in my friend's garage in California. :cry: If you can sorta make out the label on the exhaust (Termignoni), that's where my user name comes from:

And a few past wheels:
A 4-speed '90 Mitsubishi Minica that served me well in Japan. 0.66 liters of pure power, baby! I bought it for 30,000yen, and sold it for 20,000. Best damn deal I ever got on a car. Never broke down, and didn't even to pay for shaken (a super expensive, bi-annual safety inspection) while I was there!

a '94 Yamaha FXR250. Sitting in a shop in Japan on consignment. Anyone in Japan want a 250 for cheap? I guess it's still technically mine until it sells. :-k

A 67 Royal Enfield Bullet 350. This is the bike that was in the back of my truck on the top picture. I imported it from India into California. Rode it around for a bit, but every damn time I put a wrench to it to fix one thing, another thing would go. Leaked oil like no tomorrow. I sold it before I headed out to Japan a few years back.

CARS ARE BORING, BACK TO GAMES!

Now, now Kitsune. Just because you don't have a car..... :)
Nice bikes there t_t. Every time that I think of buying one, I remind myself that I'd surely wreck and die within a week. I drive a '02 Ford Mustang most of the time, but don't have any pics. The rest of the time, I'm driving people crazy.

I drive a Le Car.

I drive a red 92' Ford Ranger, & my wife drives a purpleish Scion XA(I think, whicher one, ISN'T the boxy one).

I have a car and I think cars are boring unless they come with a Saturn Navi.

no horse, no ride.

Agreed! Though even cooler is a quadricycle equipped with a Pip!n Atmark!

A young guy that thinks things with wheels are boring? There must be something genetically wrong with you guys. 8-[

Nice. I hated the redesign of the 94 Mustangs. Somehow looked a bit too timid to be a muscle car. They improved it a lot with your particular generation. But then, most of the Ford design of the 90's just about makes me puke. They got into that "smooth everything out design" mindset, which made for the ugliest cars. (F150, Taurus, Mustang, Probe...) The new Mustang is looking decent as well.
If you really wanna get into bikes, check out a course offered by MSF. They provide bikes that are small and aren't intimidating, and if you complete the course successfully, you get a motorcycle license as well.
If the idea of big bikes unsettles you, you can even start out with something like a scooter - I'm thinking getting me one myself to just shoot around town. That's a lot of fun in itself. (In fact, I prefer that in cities. Riding motorcycles in stop & go traffic is actually no fun at all)

Dude - that's looks EXACTLY like the oba-san bike like I had... Oh wait, that's because everyone and their moms had that exact same bike (literally). The basket is damn handy.

Yun ties in with my license plate. It all goes back to 2004, and I'm too lazy to change it.
